Title: Method and apparatus for producing pressure-moulded articles from chip board or like material
Inventor: MUNK EDMUND
IPC: B27N5/00
Filed: 1963-07-31
Abstract: 990,351. Compression mouldings. FORMWOOD Ltd. July 31, 1963, No. 30390/63. Heading B5A. Compression mouldings of organic or inorganic fibrous materials, e.g. wood chips, and a thermosetting binder are made in a two-stage process, the first stage comprising compression without the application of heat to form an evenly compressed blank 10, Fig. 2, slightly larger and of the same general shape as the final article 9, Fig. 1, and the second stage comprising compression in a heated mould in which one or more corners and edges of the blank are more highly compressed than the main body of the article. The mould for the second stage of the process is shown in the open and closed positions in Fig. 2 and Fig. 1 respectively, the compression being effected by first bringing the mould sections 1, 2, 3, 4 in pressure contact with blank in the position shown in Fig. 2 and finally moving the sections 2 and 4 relative to sections 1 and 3 respectively to the position shown in Fig. 1 to produce an article with corners 13, 14, 15, 16, 21 more highly compressed than the rest of the article. The strength of the corners may be increased by adding additional resin to these parts. The resistance of the article to particular external influences may be increased by the use of particular resin binders, e.g. phenolic resins, to increase weather resistance and by the addition in the preparation of the fibrous material of various substances, e.g. naphthalene chloride to protect against insects and silicones to make the -material waterrepellent. The article may be given a thin covering of synthetic plastic or other suitable material, e.g. paper or wood veneer, by removing the article 9 before the binder is completely set and applying the covering to the core 9 or to the pressure surfaces of the mould before completing the pressing.

Abstract: 1305734 Cooling cracked gases BADISCHE ANILIN & SODA FABRIK AG 24 June 1970 [25 June 1969] 30645/70 Heading C5E [Also in Division F4] Cracked gases or synthesis gases obtained by cracking hydrocarbons such as natural gas, naphtha or oil, or by caburizing coke are cooled by passing the gases through a liquid metal bath, the heat transfer rate between which and a coolant is so regulated that the hot gases are cooled to a temperature at which not more than 10 mg. of liquid condensate are separated from the gas, per normal cubic metre of gas. The temperature regulation may be effected by altering the flow rate of the coolant (e.g. in a jacket around the bath) or by changing the level of metal in the bath. Examples given of suitable metals for the bath are lead, tin, bismuth or thallium or their alloys with other metals, e.g. silver. A particular example comprises molten lead containing about 20% by weight of bismuth or silver. The preferred coolant is water or a water-steam mixture; alternatively naphthalene or polyphenylenes may be used. The heat from the coolant may be. used to generate steam. The condensate rises to the surface of the bath and may be removed therefrom, either intermittently or continuously by blasts of steam above the surface of the bath. At higher temperatures, it is stated, some or all of the condensate will carburize in a finely divided state and will be entrained from the metal bath with the gas bubbling upwardly through the bath. At higher flow rates some of the molten metal will be atomized and entrained by the gas to be subsequently removed by quenching or by a cyclone separator or by baffles.

Title: Calculator display circuit
IPC: G06F15/02
Filed: 1973-06-28
Abstract: 1391757 Calculators BOWMAR INSTRUMENT CORP 28 June 1973 30740/73 Headings G4A and G4H  In an electronic calculator, a computing circuit 12 (Fig. 1) in response to pulses from a clock pulse generator 40 provides (1) pulses sequentially on lines d 1 -d 11  donnected to a keyboard 30 which when operated provides signals selectively at inputs 18 of the computing circuit and (2) groups of pulses on lines a-h, for each pulse on a line d 1  ... d 11 , which are connected, together with lines d 1 - d 11 , to a display unit 32 which preferably comprises light emitting diodes. As described the keyboard comprises spring biased push buttons for character and function entry. Each group of signals on lines a-h represents in coded form, a data entry or computed value and is repeated until a new data value is entered. The display comprises nine light emitting diode chips each consisting of eight anodes in the shape of rectangular segments (86a-86h, Fig. 4, not shown) to which the lines a-h are connected and a conductive substrate (90) acting as a common cathode. The lines a-h are connected via segment driver amplifiers 172-186 (Fig. 6) to the anodes, each of the lines d 1 -d 8 , d 11  being connected via an associated digit driver 150-156 to the cathode of one of the chips. The driver amplifiers may all be switched off by a blanking circuit 192 (Fig. 8) which also limits the length of time the display chips remain illuminated between operation of the keyboard. Depression of a key results in a transistor 282 being rendered conductive so that capacitor 292 is discharged resulting in transistor 298 and 304 becoming non-conductive and transistor 309 becoming conductive to supply power to the segment drivers. When the key is released transistor 282 switches off, capacitor 292 charges up to cut of transistor 309 and cut off the cupply to the segment drivers (or in a modification to the digit drivers). Consequently the display is distinguished after a predetermined length of time to reduce the drain on the batteries. Transistor 304 is then conductive and renders transistor 400 conductive to couple pulses on line d 5  to line 202. This results in a segment (86g) of a chip associated with line d 5  being energized to give an indication that, although the blanking circuit is off, the calculator is operative. The calculator may operate either from batteries or from the mains the blanking circuit being inoperative in the latter case. A low voltage detector circuit 196 is connected to the supply bus 46 and to the line d 11 . The circuit comprises detector transistors 452, 454, transistor 454 being rendered conductive by a signal on line d 11  when the battery voltage on the bus 46 drops too low and consequently renders conductive transistor 452 so that current flows through lines 204, 206, 208 to selective segments (86d, 86e, 86f) of the chips so that an "L" is displayed on the chip associated at the line d 11 .
